Social media users mocked first daughter Ivanka Trump for using a private email server with the same words her father deployed against Hillary Clinton during the 2016 presidential election — “Lock her up.”

An investigation by the White House found Ivanka Trump, who has an office in the West Wing and is an adviser to her father, conducted business via her personal email address for much of 2017, the Washington Post reported.

Twitter users were quick to point out the hypocrisy after President Trump made Clinton’s use of a private email server when she was secretary of state a campaign issue, encouraging crowds to chant “Lock her up” and referring to her as “crooked Hillary.”

“#Ivanka sent hundreds of emails re gov’nt business on her personal server! We’re scandalized! All I can do is repeat what her father said when Hillary did something not unlike what his First Daughter did!! LOCK HER UP! LOCK HER UP!!! LOCK HER UP!! How do you like it now, putz?,” wrote actress Bette Midler.

“Who’s the Boss?” actress Alyssa Milano, a frequent critic of the Trump administration, also weighed in.

“You can’t make this stuff up. Not after that gang did the ‘Lock Her Up!’ chant against Hillary for two solid years so Ivanka could become First Daughter. Above the law, just like daddy. Disgusting hardly says it,” he wrote.

The Washington Post reported that Ivanka Trump sent “hundreds” of emails discussing business with cabinet officials and White House aides.

Peter Mirijanian, a spokesman for her lawyer Abbe Lowell, acknowledged that she “sometimes used her private account, almost always for logistics and scheduling concerning her family.”

He also said in the statement that the emails never contained classified information.

After administration ethics officials uncovered her use of the emails, the president’s daughter said she was unaware of regulations about the use of a private server, the newspaper reported.

Twitter users were skeptical that she would be ignorant of the rules after her father made such a big deal of Clinton during the campaign.

“Ivanka Trump trying to figure out why sending government e-mails over a private server is illegal even though she knew it was illegal when Hillary Clinton did it 2 years,” Brian Gay posted on his account.

Another user played off Trump’s comments in July 2016 when he encouraged Russia to find Clinton’s emails.

“Russia if you’re listening, I hope you’re able to find the missing @IvankaTrump emails. #LockHerUp,” wrote G Michael.
